Rules

Format: Arena Brawl (standard)

Pairings: Best of 1 Swiss rounds, number of rounds based on number of participants

Time limit: 35 minute rounds, rounds will start early if all matches are concluded.

Draws: If any match goes to a timelimit, the match will be scored as a tie.

Reporting: both players are required to report scores after each round via the player controller. Failure to report may result in penalties up to and including round loss, draw, or drop from tournament.

Crashes: if a player’s game client disconnects and the player is unable to reconnect in order to complete the round, that player will be issued a round loss. If both players disconnect and the match is unable to continue, the round will be scored a tie.

Rules are enforced at the organizers discretion.

Communication

All tournament chat will be conducted on the Plague League Discord server. During the tournament, each match will have it’s own voice channel. Both players are expected to join a voice channel but are not compelled to use it.

If a player is being abusive via the Discord server, their opponent is encouraged to direct message a tournament admin to supervise the chat. If the abusive language continues, the player will face sanctions up to and including disqualifications and bans from future events.

Procedures

When pairings are posted, check in and find your opponent using the MTGMelee Player Controller. Then establish some sort of communication with your opponent. You can find an empty Discord voice channel (marked with “Table #”) in the Plague League Discord server

The Brawl format doesn't have a best of 3 setting, so each match will be BO1 winner-take-all

Once the match is played to it’s conclusion, both players must report their scores using the MtgMelee Player Controller. Failure to do so as a winner may result in a round loss or drop from tournament. If neither player from a match reports their score, it will be recorded as a draw.

Once the round begins, players have 10 minutes to check in, find their opponent, issue the challenge and begin the match. After 10 minutes, any player that has not joined a match or been in communication with either their opponent or the organizer takes the loss, and the waiting player will award themself with two wins
